In English law
In the English practice, a calendar is made out of attainted criminals, and the judge signs the calendar with their separate judgments in the margin. In the case of a capital felony, it is written opposite the prisoner's name, "Let him be hanged by the neck," which, when the proceedings were in Latin, was "suspendatur per eollum," or, in the abbreviated form, "Sms' per coll'."
